Shopify

Connect your Shopify store to load its products, pages, blog articles, and policies into a brain, keep it current automatically as the store changes, and add a grounded, cited Ask widget to your storefront — no theme code.

How it works#

From Settings → Shopify, enter your store domain and install the Ounie app, which authorizes read-only access to your catalog and policies. Ounie pulls your products, pages, blog articles, and store policies (shipping, refund, privacy, terms) through the Shopify Admin API and turns each into a source in the brain you choose — synthesized into the same connected wiki and graph as everything else. Your billing and brains stay on ounie.com — the Shopify app is purely the connector.

Staying current#

Once connected, Shopify webhooks keep the brain in step with your store: when a product, page, or article is created, updated, or deleted, Ounie re-syncs just that item — and removes sources for things you delete. There is nothing to schedule and no manual re-import; your storefront answers track your real catalog.

The storefront Ask widget#

The Ounie Ask widget installs on your storefront as a Shopify theme app embed — no theme code. In the theme editor, open App embeds, turn on Ounie Ask, and paste the widget ID shown in your Ounie dashboard. It gives shoppers a grounded, cited answer bubble that draws only from your store’s real products and policies — great for pre-sale and support questions. Your storefront domain is allowlisted automatically, and the widget is metered by your included widget allowance, then credits, like any other Ounie widget.

Shopify connect is available on every plan. A real catalog usually needs Pro or Team for the source headroom — the sync tells you if it hits your limit. See pricing for current limits, and WordPress for the same idea on a WordPress site.
